Why You Should Attend

5th Annual Gas Market Pricing and Dynamics

This marcusevans conference
will demonstrate solutions being implemented by energy market operators to
improve gas market structure, transparency and efficiency.Our event will also show firms how to
incorporate these changing factors into their decision making processes to
ensure optimum pricing and profitability.

EU gas consumption declined by 20% in the
first half of 2014 relative to the year before mainly driven by warm weather.
Gas imports were down by 9% over the same period. Thus, Europe’s ability to
soak up surplus flexible LNG volumes will become an important driver of global
pricing dynamics through the current period of global oversupply. The volume of
LNG flow into Europe will influence absolute hub price levels. The profiling of
flow patterns will also impact summer/winter hub price spreads and price volatility.
Across the space of the last six months, the evolution of the global LNG market
has rapidly taken centre stage as a future driver of the European gas market.
